The diagram of the nuclear site.  You go in

This setting would be used

Chairman Mao is celebrated in this poster.



I've never walked through

Not much of a margin for error!

There were rows and rows of these.  Now

These cooling rods are not real.

Not sure what it means,
but it's still pretty cool!
